So Mexico's not paying?


He already stated his plan was that this would end up being realized with improved immigration and trade policy. Not crazy to think that they will spend initial money to do it and make it up on the back end.

Ryan sucks and should be replaced he will be one of the main reasons the Republicans fail.

Trump is going to have to bash some skulls to get the wall funding. The uniparty wants nothing to do with a wall

I have no idea why Trump kept insisting that Mexico would pay. It was obviously not going to happen and none of his supporters would have had a problem with just saying "we're going going to pay for it, it'll be expensive but amazing". He just set himself up to look bad for no reason.

Dude... shut up. The god damn wall will be built and through tariffs, trade deficit renegotiations, deporting the illegal free cheese immigrants, tax on money being sent back to Mexico...will pay for itself. if you actually thought Mexico was going to write us a check...then you're a failure.
Here is some liberal fake news, so it's gotta be true

Exactly. It's the same principal on which toll roads are built. Fund it up front. Recover the cost through tolls or trade or whatever.

So in the end it's going to be some typically government finagling, like Obama's jobs created and "saved."

Trump is the reason the Republican party is so strong and he saved the Supreme Court from being destroyed by activist judges. .

it was ALWAYS clear that he meant they would pay for it by a) the reduction in trade deficit with them he would bring and b) the extra money that we would get by Americans getting jobs that Mexicans currently have

he said as much

Why the frick can't you and the rest of the country just let this play out. 4 months in, and nothing but negativity, conspiracy theories, speculation. Gets old and not worth arguing over speculating on how the wall will be built. I'm done. If Trump failing is what makes you happy, then good for you.

Ryan is using the border wall funds as leverage to get his BAT passed. Trump does not want want the protectionists' policy of a 20% tariff on all imports, aka BAT.


Trump could get wall funding if congress gives the go ahead to Wilber Ross at the Commerce Department but Paul Ryan has not acknowledged Wilber's "letter of intent" to renegotiate NAFTA. If Ryan gives the go ahead now he will lose leverage to get his 20% tariffs on imports. Again, Trump does not want the BAT. Ryan is trying to run out the clock.

PAUL RYAN IS A THUG PIECE OF shite!!!

the republican party controls the house and senate and trump still can't pee a drop with his agenda.maybe trump isn't our savior.perhaps he is the idiot many of us thought he was.

maybe those who voted for him were sold a bill of goods not worth the paper it was written on.

P.T.Barnum said that there's a sucker born every minute.

that statement is no truer than now.trump's supporters fell hook,line and sinker for what they wanted hear...

my hope is that for the country's sake he will get his head out of his egotistical arse and become a true leader of this country instead of pressing his personal fake promises because he can't tolerate being wrong...

The flow across the Border of future welfare recipients/Dem voters has substantially decreased. Once that Wall is built...the drug trade will suffer the same fate.

Bottom line...if that Wall goes up...money that would go to Mexico...stays here. Not to mention all the Government subsidies that won't be handed out.

A lot of people just really don't care if this Nation goes Third World/Banana Republic. Sometimes.... . Geez!
